Rose

Hello TBBR, As promised, I wanted to send you an update on the sweetest beagle ever! Foremost, our little lady weighed in at 28.5 pounds this weekend! We are so happy and proud of her and the wonderful job that she has been doing. It is hard to believe that we have had Rose now for over 4 months. We just grow to love her more each day and I still get that little tickle in my heart whenever she looks at me. She is the best and we are so thankful to TBBR for doing what you do. It is hard to imagine or even think about what would have happened to this sweet little princess if she had not been lovingly taken in by such a wonderful, caring group of people. It is no wonder that they say dog is man’s best friend…because Rose truly is ours. She is our loyal little companion and we try to include her in all of our plans as much as possible. 2 weeks ago, she had her first sleep over at her Grandads. She went on a lot of walks and loved the smells of the heavily wooded areas in their backyard. On Thursday we are all going to enjoy a baseball game and Saturday holds in store another trip to the beach! She seems truly happy as long as she is with Mom and Dad — from just hanging out in the yard, or just watching TV she is always close by. Her newest hobby is chasing lizards. She is not real crazy about other dogs, but that is ok, because she is our one and only and all we need. No matter how tired she gets, she will stay up with us until it is time for everyone to go to bed where she likes to lay in between us and give us lots of kisses and enjoys getting her trim little belly rubbed. When it is time to get up in the morning, she wakes us with more kisses, and if that is not enough to get us out of bed, she will jump off the bed and pull the covers off of us or howl at us begging us to get up and take her for her morning stroll (and of course, breakfast). She is so full of energy and loves to play, especially now that she had lost that extra weight. Rose has brought so much fulfillment to our lives that I think neither one of us could have ever imagined. I think she knows that she is home now forever and that she will never be alone or abandoned again. We remind her of that all the time and I am pretty sure that she understands! Sorry I did not have very many pictures with family, we will work on that and get some to you! Thank you all for what you do! Carrie, Joshua and Rose
